Aggressive Small Cap, L.P., an Oklahoma limited partnership (Prescott Small Cap), Prescott Group

This Schedule 13D relates to the Ordinary Shares purchased by the Small Cap Funds through the
account of Prescott Group Aggressive Small Cap Master Fund, G.P., an Oklahoma general partnership
(Prescott Master Fund), of which the Small Cap Funds are the general partners. Prescott Capital
serves as the general partner of the Small Cap Funds and may direct the Small Cap Funds, the

|
Item 1. |

|
|
|
Item 2. |
|
Identity and Background |
(a) This Schedule 13D is jointly filed by Prescott Capital, Prescott Small Cap, Prescott
Small Cap II and Mr. Phil Frohlich. Because Mr. Frohlich is the managing member of Prescott
Capital, which is the general partner of the Small Cap Funds (with Mr. Frohlich and Prescott
Capital hereinafter referred to as the Controlling Persons), the Controlling Persons may be
deemed, pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Act), to
be the beneficial owners of all of the Ordinary Shares held by the Small Cap Funds. The Reporting
Persons (as hereinafter defined) are filing this Schedule 13D jointly, as they may be considered a
group under Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. However, neither the fact of this filing nor anything
contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by the Reporting Persons that such a group
exists.
(b) The principal place of business for each of the Reporting Persons is 1924 South Utica,
Suite #1120, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74104.
Page 6 of 11
(c) The principal occupation of Mr. Frohlich is serving as the managing member of Prescott
Capital. The principal business of Prescott Capital is acting as the general partner of the Small
Cap Funds. The principal business of the Small Cap Funds is investing in securities.
(d) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been convicted in a
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).
(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons have been a party to a civil
proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such
proceeding, were or are subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations
of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding
any violation with respect to such laws.
(f) Prescott Capital and the Small Cap Funds are organized under the laws of the State of
Oklahoma. Mr. Frohlich is a citizen of the United States of America.
|
|
|
Item 3. |
|
Source and Amount of Funds |
As of June 14, 2010, the Small Cap Funds had invested $4,985,972 (inclusive of brokerage
commissions) in Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. The source of these funds was the working capital
of the Small Cap Funds.
|
|
|
Item 4. |
|
Purpose of the Transaction |
The Small Cap Funds (together with Phil Frohlich and Prescott Capital, the Reporting
Persons) purchased the Ordinary Shares based on the belief that such securities, when purchased,
were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Although the Reporting
Persons have no specific plan or proposal to acquire or dispose of the Ordinary Shares, consistent
with their investment purpose, the Reporting Persons at any time and from time to time may acquire
additional Ordinary Shares or dispose of any or all of their Ordinary Shares depending upon an
ongoing evaluation of the investment in the Ordinary Shares, prevailing market conditions, other
investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Persons and/or other investment
considerations.
The purpose of the acquisition of the Ordinary Shares was for investment, and the acquisitions
of the Ordinary Shares were made in the ordinary course of business and were not made for the
purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer.
Also, consistent with the investment purpose, the Reporting Persons may engage in
communications with one or more shareholders of the Issuer, one or more officers of the Issuer
and/or one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer and/or one or more
representatives or regulators of the Issuer regarding the Issuer, including, but not limited to,
its operations. The Reporting Persons may discuss ideas that, if effected, may result in any of
the following: the acquisition by persons of additional Ordinary Shares of the Issuer, an
extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer and/or changes in the board of directors
or management of the Issuer.
Page 7 of 11
Specifically, the Reporting Persons, along with certain other shareholders of the Issuer
(collectively, the Proposing Shareholders), have submitted a letter to the Chairman of the Board
of the Issuer, a copy of which is attached to this Schedule 13D as Annex A, requesting that an
Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer be convened promptly in order to
consider certain matters proposed by the Proposing Shareholders that are set forth in the letter.
These matters include the termination of the service as directors of the Issuer of all of the board
of directors, excluding Nathan Kirsh and the then serving external directors, and the replacement
of such directors with those nominees proposed by the Proposing Shareholders. The Proposing
Shareholders believe that it would be desirable to make these changes in order to lead a recovery
plan that would improve the Issuers performance and enhance shareholder value.
Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal, the Reporting Persons
have no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in
paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of the instructions to Item 4 of the Schedule 13D. The
Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position
and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
|
|
|
Item 5. |
|
Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
(a) The aggregate percentage of Ordinary Shares reported to be owned by the Reporting Persons
is based upon 10,396,548 Ordinary Shares outstanding, which is the total number of Ordinary Shares
outstanding as of December 31, 2009, as reported in the Issuers Form 20-F filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on May 3, 2010.
As of June 14, 2010, the Small Cap Funds beneficially owned 544,427 Ordinary Shares,
representing approximately 5.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
Prescott Capital, as the general partner of the Small Cap Funds, may also be deemed to
beneficially own the 544,427 Ordinary Shares held by the Small Cap Funds, representing
approximately 5.2% of the issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
In addition, Mr. Frohlich, as managing member of Prescott Capital, the general partner of the
Small Cap Funds, may also be deemed to beneficially own the 544,427 Ordinary Shares beneficially
owned by the Small Cap Funds, representing approximately 5.2% of the issued and outstanding
Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.
Prescott Capital and Mr. Frohlich disclaim beneficial ownership of the Ordinary Shares held by
the Small Cap Funds except to the extent of their pecuniary interest therein.
(b) By virtue of his position with Prescott Capital and the Small Cap Funds, Mr. Frohlich has
the sole power to vote and dispose of the Ordinary Shares owned by the Small Cap Funds reported in
this Schedule 13D.
The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as admission that Prescott Capital or
Mr. Frohlich is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, the beneficial owner of any
of the 544,427 Ordinary Shares owned by the Small Cap Funds. Pursuant to Rule 13d-4, Prescott
Capital and Mr. Frohlich disclaim all such beneficial ownership.
Page 8 of 11
(c) There have been no transactions in the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer during the past sixty
(60) days by the Reporting Persons.

(e) Not applicable.

Magal Security Systems Ltd.
17 Altalef Street
Yehud 56100
Israel
Attention: Mr. Jacob Perry, Chairman of the Board
By Facsimile no. 03-539-1478 and Courier
Dear Sir,
Re: General Meeting of Shareholders
This letter is provided to you on behalf of (a) Clough Investment Partners I, L.P., Clough
Investment Partners II, L.P., Clough Offshore Fund, Ltd., Clough Global Equity Fund, Clough Global
Allocation Fund and The Flatley Foundation (collectively, Clough), (b) Prescott Group Aggressive
Small Cap, L.P. and Prescott Group Aggressive Small Cap II, L.P. (collectively, Prescott), and
(c) Diker Micro-Value Fund, L.P., Diker Micro-Value QP Fund, L.P., Diker Micro and Small Cap Fund,
L.P. and Diker M&S Cap Master, Ltd. (collectively, Diker, and together with Clough and Prescott,
the Shareholders). In accordance with Section 63(b) of the Israeli Companies Law, 1999 (the
Companies Law), the Shareholders hereby request that an Extraordinary General Meeting of the
shareholders of Magal Security Systems Ltd. (the Company) be convened promptly to consider the
matters further set forth below. Alternatively, in light of the upcoming annual shareholders
meeting of the Company that is scheduled to take place on June 23, 2010, it is advisable to comply
with the foregoing request by postponing such annual general meeting and revising the agenda
thereof such that it would include the proposals set forth below.
Clough, acting through Clough Capital Partners, L.P., investment advisor to the accounts
holding shares of the Company, currently holds, in the aggregate, 704,042 ordinary shares, par
value NIS1.0 per share of the Company (the Ordinary Shares) which constitute approximately 6.77%
of the issued and outstanding share capital and the voting rights of the Company, Prescott
currently holds, in the aggregate, 544,427 Ordinary Shares which constitute approximately 5.24% of
the issued and outstanding share capital and the voting rights of the Company, and Diker currently
holds, in the aggregate, 604,495 Ordinary Shares which constitute approximately 5.81% of the issued
and outstanding share capital and the voting rights of the Company.
The Shareholders believe that in light of the Companys recent performance, it would be
desirable to change the composition of the Board of Directors in order to lead a recovery plan that
would improve the Companys performance and enhance shareholders value. The Shareholders therefore
propose that certain nominees who bring with them experience and professional capabilities be
appointed as directors of the Company in place of the current members of the Board of Directors,
other than Mr. Nathan Kirsh and the then serving external
directors, who may continue to serve as external directors. The Shareholders believe that the
proposed change should be implemented as soon as possible.
Accordingly, we hereby request that notice, in accordance with all applicable legal
requirements, shall be provided as soon as possible (and in any event no later than 21 days from
the date hereof) to all shareholders of the Company of a General Meeting to be held in Israel 35
days from the date of such notice (the Meeting), to consider and vote on the matters set forth
below, and that the Company and the directors take all action necessary or advisable to cause the
Meeting to be held as promptly as possible and facilitate the orderly conduct of the Meeting,
including, without limitation, the administration of the shareholder vote.
The agenda for the Meeting shall consist of the following proposals: (a) effective as of the
close of the Meeting the service of all members of the Board of Directors, including without
limitation, Mr. Jacob Perry, Mr. Jacob Even-Ezra, Mr. Zeev Livne, Mr. Jacob Nuss and Mr. Barry
Stiefel, but excluding Mr. Nathan Kirsh and the then serving external directors, shall terminate
and they shall, as of such time and thereafter, cease to serve as a directors of the Company, and
(b) effective as of the close of the Meeting, Mr. Avihu Ben-Nun, Mr. Yoav Stern, Mr. Zivi R.
Nedivi, Mr. Ami Amir and Mr. Israel (Relik) Shafir shall be elected to serve as directors of the
Company.
We note that to the extent the service of Mr. Barry Stiefel as a director shall terminate
pursuant to the aforementioned proposals, we have no objection to his appointment by the new Board
as an observer on the Board of the Company, until otherwise determined by the Board.
It is proposed that the following resolutions be adopted at the Meeting:
To terminate the service as directors of the Company of all members of the Board of Directors,
including without limitation, Mr. Jacob Perry, Mr. Jacob Even-Ezra, Mr. Zeev Livne, Mr. Jacob Nuss
and Mr. Barry Stiefel, but excluding Mr. Nathan Kirsh and the then serving external directors,
effective as of the close of the Meeting.
Provided that resolution no. 1 above is adopted:
